You don’t need a full suspension bike for slalom it’s only marketing.

Yes, the huge market for dual slalom bikes that are totally not modified so much that they hardly resemble the original bike anymore.

My first ever mountainbike was a Dual Slalom Hardtail in the mid 2000s! Super rigid aluminum frame, 8 or 9 speed with very narrow gears, the first ever rock shox Pike with U-Turn, avid DH brakes with a 203mm rotor up front, a big fat bashguard and chainguide that weighted about 4kg alone, fat DH tires and of course 26“ wheels! Nobody thought about riding a fully at the dual slalom back then. In fact a few years on from 2005, nobody thought about dual slalom at all anymore.. Great to see it back and even get media coverage!

@michaelstewart9308 4 жыл бұрын

I don't think any reasonable person buys a bike specifically for dual slalom, they're only riding full suspension bikes because they're better for racing
